As I told my BOs: I distinctly remember buying a
brown baby...
 |
| This is not brown. |
 |
| This is a chocolate marble cake-colored horse. |
 |
| I mean, he's cute (from some angles)... but he's not exactly brown... |
Also, I'm pretty sure the
Mane N Tail Spray-Away Horse Wash stuff is magic. Used it when I bathed baby boy two weeks ago, and he is just...
silky, despite the rain and mud that happened since then. And I used it last fall on Cessa, and she stayed surprisingly soft-coated all winter. It's a little awkward, because you're basically carrying around a small jug, and it sometimes takes a little extra effort to wash out the soap because it sprays it into their coats really well, but... uh... I'll take it? Particularly at less than $15 and we've washed at least four horses with it now and we've barely made a dent in what's in the bottle.
Speaking of Cessa, she got some photo time too. She is in
raging heat right now, so she keeps coming to check on the boys. I actually got a nice series of photos of her talking to one of the boys, but it wasn't until I got home that I discovered how interested
he was in
her. Yeahhhh, I'm just... gonna leave off posting those on the internet... lol.
And last but not least, new baby is still stinking cute:
She's also officially silver black, which tells us who Daddy was. Considering he was... uh... taupe as a baby, we're not sure how dark she'll end up.
I am going to have to try that spray soap...
ReplyDelete...but that is definitely not a brown horse :-P
At least it's a reasonably attractive not-brown. If you google brown varnish roan, there are some really unfortunate examples of coloration out there. lol My BO was teasing me that because I said I didn't want it, I was going to end up with the horrible brown-orange version.
DeleteI have to agree with you there. I've seen some pretty sad looking ones in the past.
